A Thief in the Night is an evangelical Christian film series about the Rapture, Tribulation, and Second Coming of Christ. It consists of four films: A Thief in the Night (1972), A Distant Thunder (1978), Image of the Beast (1981), and The Prodigal Planet (1983). The series focuses on the difficulties of those who miss out on the Rapture by having not trusted Christ as savior and thus find themselves in the Tribulation. Interspersed throughout the four films are many presentations of the Christian gospel.
A Thief in the Night (1972) is the first installment in the Thief in the Night series about the story of Patty, a young woman caught up in living for the present with little concern for the future. She meets and marries a young man and her life seems great, until one moment she awakens to find her husband gone and the radio reporting millions of people have mysteriously disappeared. As dramatic, earth shaking events begin to unfold around her, Patty realizes she is living in the end times spoken of in biblical prophecy. Adventure and suspense build to a though-provoking climax in this powerfully gripping film.
A Distant Thunder (1978) ) is the second installment in the Thief in the Night series continues the story of Patty, a young woman living in the "end times" referred to in biblical prophecy. This action suspense thriller finds Patty living as a fugitive, trying to hide from the ever increasing evil around her. Relentlessly pursued and finally captured by the forces of UNITE, she is given a choice: Either receive "the mark" or face death. Staring Patty Dunning, Sally Johnson, and Sandy Christen.
Image of the Beast (1980) is the third installment in the Thief in the Night series and is best known for entry in the Mark IV series of fundamentalist apocalypse films. Fundamentalist Christian guerrilla David helps condemned dissidents escape, attempts to subvert the computerized Mark of the Beast, and generally tries to survive as prophecy unfolds in the rise of the Antichrist to the pinnacle of his power and the beginning of God's war on sinful man. Staring William Wellman Jr., Susan Plumb, and Patty Dunning.
The Prodigal Planet (1983) is the fourth and final and least well-known installment in the Mark IV series of fundamentalist apocalypse films. About to be executed by the forces of the Antichrist, fundamentalist Christian guerrilla David is rescued by Connie, an Antichrist agent pretending to be a double agent for the Believers' Underground. Connie hopes to trick David into leading her to the dissidents' hidden base. Meanwhile, Armageddon and the Second Coming draw nigh.Staring William Wellman Jr., Lynda Beatie, and Terri Lynn Hall.

THis is perhaps the most TERRIFYING film in my life that I saw back when it originally was made world wide to the people !!! OMG!!!! Hence, I was born in 1972 but my parent took me to see this film at a midnight showing out in the woods in a deserted island in the middle of nowhere..im NOT MAKING THIS UP....its all too tooo EYES WIDE SHUT!!!! for reals real!!!
I remember it was me and my mom and dad ...my dad drove us in his orange pickup camper truck FORD, from a private and VIP tickets and invite only to a secluded and secret sahara desert somewhere in the lost land of southwest texas areas....hundreds of miles of driving through dirt roads...no lights no anything....its was sooooo scarrry!!!! straight out of Close ENcounters of the third kind!!! OMG!!!! im getting goose bumps just remembering this from my childhoood in the 1970's!!!!!
I remember arriving at the site of the showing of the film!!! it was like just like the scene from CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRDS KIND DEVILS MOUNTAIN!!!!! where me and my mom and my dad are on the other side of devils mountain overlooking at the government secret C.I.A. and N,A,S,A, and all sorts of religious private sectors from all across the country!!!! omg i was like seven years old...i remember, having to walk into the camp site!!! yES!!! a camp site in the middle of nowhere...we were taken escorted into our seats under this huge tent rivavle type of thing...like in the film SANTA SANGRE but it was nnoooooo circus and it was nOOOOOOO tent rivival no mam !!!!!
they stamp our forehead with the number of the beast...i soooooo remember in charcoal or maybe it was stamp....666 in black , to enter the premises,,, it was the only way and i was crying and trying to run away from my mother screamming NO MOM!!! i DONT WANT TO GOT WITH THE SCARRY POLTERGEIST TWO MAN WHO VISITS THE HOME IN THE MOVIE!! YES HYES HYES it was jjust like that.....that man from the poltergeist two film
omg!!!!
and then wer were seated down and the film started it was like an outdoor movie theatre like a drive innn but no drive inn ive ever seen before...it was inside a huge tent!!! omg the fierceness was overwhelming but i was brave.....
and then the film started and there was screaming and yelling and NOOOOOOO!!!!! and the lady running down the railroad tracks!!! OMG...!!! I jump up from where i was seating next to my parents and i ran off screaming through the crowd broke through the curtains fo the tent and went screaming yhelling NNOOOOOOO!!!! NOT ME!!!
